Drag Racer Mark Niver Killed in Accident

NHRA drag racer Mark Niver was killed Sunday while racing near Seattle. Niver crashed after the parachutes on his car “ripped off.” He was unable to stop and hit a net. Niver was 60.

“NHRA and Pacific Raceways officials extend their deepest sympathies to the entire Niver family. Niver was a racer’s racer. For most of his career, he not only drove but built his dragsters and machined his engines and components. His talent on the race track and in the machine shop was superseded only by his kindness and willingness to help other racers,” NHRA said in a statement on their Web site.

Niver raced for more than 40 years. He won the O’Reilly Summer Nationals in 2008.
